Note:
Reissue, without his name, of Atwood's 1851 map of similar title (#2365). The table of distances is expanded and the map includes more of South America but less of Canada than the 1851 edition. Both this map and the 1851 map probably come from an earlier edition of the 1854 "North America and Europe..." by Ensign, Bridgman & Fanning, engraved by J.M. Atwood (#2878). Wheat Gold 258 is the 1854 edition of this map, published by Ensign, Bridgman & Fanning. Map has outline color, and is folded into embossed dark green cloth covers 14x9 with title "Map Of The United-States Canada Mexico Central America And The West India Islands" stamped in gold. Prime meridian is Greenwich. Relief shown by hachures.
